I'm not reading this the way the rest of you are. The "western" officials wouldn't be Americans, they'd be European. 

That's how I read it too.

Remember the enormous bribes European officials and elites were engaging in with the Iraqi oil for food program? It was so bad it pretty much blunted any effects from sanctions.

Imagine 8 years of Obama with Hillary at the helm in the State Dept......must have been like ringing the dinner bell at fat camp.

Here’s a thought.

The French government has changed since then. The US government has changed since then. The British government has changed since then.

While individual politicians may have been bribed there, the ones in power now weren’t getting money.

Germany though? Merkel’s already in trouble over immigration stuff. Getting caught up in an Iranian bribe scandal may finish her off.
