The shame of the UN

From the NYT (via Americablog):
Half of the 4,500 companies involved in the United Nations oil-for-food aid program in Iraq paid kickbacks or illegal surcharges and are being given a chance to respond to the accusations, two top investigators say
That's 2,250 companies that were willing to compromise the well-being of Iraqi civlians in order to stuff their pockets with some green.
