International criminal flew U.S. supply missions in Iraq.

Isn't this a kick in the pants?

From Thinkprogress:

“The U.S. government paid a wanted international criminal roughly $60 million to fly supplies into Iraq in support of the war effort,” alleges the new book “Merchant of Death: Money, Guns, Plans, and the Man Who Makes War Possible.” Arms merchant and international trafficker Viktor Bout is considered “one of the greatest threats to U.S. interests,” yet in 2003, he managed to get a job with KBR “flying supplies into newly-invaded Iraq as a subcontractor to U.S. military contractors.”

People can't find jobs here yet the idiot hires a war lord. Go figure..It’s Noriega all over again.

Look for more of the same to come. When Bush/Cheney are finished Iraqis will be able to pay cash for the homes Americans lost. We are still paying Iraq towns people money and we get no information. General Petraeus is giving thousand each month to mayors of towns just to make them like us. You do the math it all adds up to more debt for US taxpayers.
