Fraud within the U.N.? Say it ain't so.

U.N. Aid Agency’s main accomplishment seems to be fraud. Who knew??

According to a Fox News story by George Russell the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) squandered more than $330 million on little known U.N. agency known as UNOPS – United Nations Office for Project Services. Don’t you just love all these acronyms and fancy titles? The money was supposed to be used to carry out development aid projects in Afghanistan, according to Russell. What followed was the typical U.N. chicanery we’ve come to expect from them.

USAID decided to look the other way, rather than address a growing mountain of evidence that pointed to fraud within the organization. It appears that every effort was made to facilitate hiding the fraud and loopholes were created to that end.
The findings didn’t even become public until the report came out on Nov. 19 to the U.S. Senate Subcommittee. The report was originally commissioned by GAO and then hidden for another month, according to Russell.

It wasn’t made public until Dec. 17, just prior to the Christmas break.
Of course Obama will claim this money is needed in order to support the efforts in Afghanistan.
Because new UNOPS rules were changed to give only limited access to Executive Board members no criminal charges are expected. UNOPS members operate under U.N. diplomatic immunity.

And these clowns wonder why we don’t trust them. Imagine that. Not to worry though or in the words of Sean Hannity, “Let not your heart be troubled.” GAO officials have quietly and politely suggested that Hillary Clinton work with them in “continued management reforms”. It could work. I could win the lottery, too.
