UNSCAM-hearing at 9:30- this is just one report

IX. CONCLUSION
Despite Galloway’s denials, the evidence obtained by the Subcommittee, including
Hussein-era documents from the Ministry of Oil and testimony from senior Hussein officials,
shows that Iraq granted George Galloway allocations for millions of barrels of oil under the Oil
for Food Program. Moreover, some evidence indicates that Galloway appeared to use a charity
for children’s leukemia to conceal payments associated with at least one such allocation. Lastly,
according to senior Hussein officials, the oil allocations were granted by Iraq because of
Galloway’s support for the Hussein regime and his opposition to U.N. sanctions.
