    Billions set aside for post-Saddam Iraq turned up in Lebanese bunker

    Billions set aside for post-Saddam Iraq turned up in Lebanese bunker

    Stuart Bowen, who investigated corruption in Iraq, says US and Iraqi governments ignored appeals to recover money

    More than $ 1bn earmarked for the reconstruction of Iraq was stolen and spirited to a bunker in Lebanon as the American and Iraqi governments ignored appeals to recover the money, it has been claimed.

    Stuart Bowen, a former special inspector general who investigated corruption and waste in Iraq, said the stash accounted for a significant chunk of the huge sums which vanished during the chaotic months following the 2003 US-led invasion.

    Bowen's team Discovered That $ 1.2bn to $ 1.6bn was Moved to a bunker in rural Lebanon for safe keeping - and then pleaded in vain for Baghdad and Washington to act, According to James Risen, a journalist who Interviewed Bowen for a book, Pay Any Price : Greed, Power and Endless War , to be published this week.

    "Billions of dollars have been taken out of Iraq over the last 10 years illegally. In this investigation, we thought we were on the track for some of that lost money. It's disappointing to me personally we That provenance Unable to close this case, for Reasons beyond our control, "Bowen said in an excerpt from the book published by the New York Times on Sunday .

    The disclosure of the bunker shines a light on one of the occupation's murkier puzzles: the fate of pallets of shrink-wrapped $ 100 bills which the Bush administration loaded on to Air Force C-17 transport planes in order to prop up the occupation of post- Saddam Hussein Iraq. About $ 12bn to $ 14bn was sent in the airlift and another $ 5bn via electronic transfer.

    Bowen, a Texan friend of the president, was appointed in 2004 to investigate reports of corruption and waste in Iraq. He spent close to a decade chasing leads, until his office closed last year.

    Much of the money was probably used by the Iraqi government in some way, Bowen concluded, but in 2010 a Lebanese American on his staff received a tip about stolen money hidden in a Lebanese bunker. In addition to the cash there was said to be approximately $ 200m in gold belonging to the Iraqi government.

    An investigation, code named Brick Tracker, struggled to uncover details of the transfer, said Bowen, who told Risen: "I do not know how the money got to Lebanon. If I knew that, we would have made more progress on the case. "

    Washington had long since forgotten about the cash and shrugged when informed about his discovery, he said. The CIA expressed little interest, the FBI said it lacked jurisdiction and the US embassy in Beirut denied his team permission to visit the bunker, because it was too dangerous.

    "We struggled to gain timely support from the interagency as we pursued this case," Bowen said. One reason for such indifference, Bowen believed, was because it was "Iraqi money stolen by Iraqis".

    The money came from the Development Fund of Iraq, which was created by a May 2003 United Nations resolution to hold Iraqi oil revenue, and was originally held in a New Jersey facility run by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

    Bowen said he spoke to former is Iraq's prime Minister, Nouri al-Maliki , about the bunker but That Baghdad made ​​no-effort to retrieve the cash.Lebanon's prosecutor general, Said Mirza, initially agreed to co-operate in an investigation but later backtracked, he said.

    Frustration with official indifference appears to have prompted Bowen's decision to speak out publicly for the first time. Since his office shut down he has moved to the private sector.

    The perception of graft and illicit fortunes in the reconstruction effort fuelled cynicism about and hostility to the US-led occupation of Iraq.
    Paul Bremer, who was the head of the Coalition Provisional Authority which ruled Iraq in the occupation's early days, defended his agency's handling of the funds, including the 11th-hour rush of $ 4bn to $ 5bn to Baghdad in June 2004, just before the CPA shut down.

    The Iraqi Government "That was broke at point" and provenance Funds urgently needed, Bremer Told Risen, a Pulitzer-winning reporter for the New York Times who Could face jail over his Refusal to reveal a source and Testify Against former is a CIA agent Accused of leaking secrets.

    "The issue is what happened to the money once it was distributed through the minister of finance. We had a very clear record of funds going to the Iraqi system. "

    Bowen challenged that defence, saying there were few credible records of how the money was spent. "Our auditors interviewed numerous senior advisers of the CPA, and we learned from them that the controls on the Development Fund of Iraq money were inadequate," he said. "We did not make this up; we learned this from CPA staff. "

    Bowen said he suspected some, possibly all, of the money had since been moved from the bunker.

    The discovery of 1.6 billion dollars of Iraq's money hidden in Lebanon







    Baghdad / follow-up to the obelisk: After not long from the defeat of the American forces to the regime of Saddam Hussein in 2003, began in convoys of trucks access to Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington on a regular basis, carrier shipments unusual - banknotes of $ 100 bills. It was the transfer of the cash, which was withdrawn from the assets of the Iraqi government within the United States, on board a Hercules transport aircraft «C - 17» Air Force to Baghdad, where they hoped the Bush administration to provide these funds boost financial fast for the new Iraqi government and the economy Iraqi collapsed.
    Over the past year and a half following, has been moved between 12 and 14 billion dollars flown to Iraq, in addition to five billion dollars sent via EFT. The fate of these funds after they reach Baghdad has turned into one of the many questions lingering since the period of chaos that accompanied the American occupation, which saw the flow of billions from the United States to Iraq at a time of rampant corruption in it.
    And became finding an answer to this question is the first task for Stuart Bowen, a friend of President George W.. Bush of Texas in 2004 and was appointed a special inspector to investigate the corruption and waste of money in Iraq. Before the final closure of his office last year, I think that Bowen to reach the answer, but only partially.
    Bowen concluded that some of the money may have been exploited by the Iraqi government in some way, but remained powerless over the years for determining the fate of billions of other so as to enable the investigators working under his presidency finally achieve the detection of critical importance, as it concluded that between 1.2 and 1.6 billion dollars has been stolen and transported to the cache in a rural area in Lebanon. And this, Bowen said: «I do not know how I got the money to Lebanon. Had I known this, we were able to achieve further progress in this issue ».
    It is noteworthy that Bowen kept this discovery and investigation about the bunker full of cash money in Lebanon, which officials called his office «BRIC Trekker», under wraps. Did not discuss this matter never publicly until this moment, and it seemed frustration at the inability of his office for determining the fate of the missing funds fully clear during a series of meetings were held with him. Commented by saying: «been directed billions of dollars in Iraq during the last ten years illegally. During this investigation, we had the belief that we are on our way toward clarifying the fate of some of the missing funds. It is frustrating to me personally that we are our inability to accomplish this issue for reasons outside of our control ».
    Bowen also feel frustrated because a similar Bush administration, unlike his office, did not check never reports on the disappearance of huge amounts of money, and that after the discovery of his team's dugout did not track the current administration of President Barack Obama this thread as well. Bowen said his office notified officials that «CIA» and «FBI» regarding their findings. He added that among the reasons for American officials not to pursue the case, from the point of view that the whole thing was «Iraqi money stolen by Iraqi». He declined Spokesmen «CIA» and «FBI» comment on this matter.
    For its part, the Iraqi government did not try to restore the money and kept the information secret hideout Lebanese.Bowen said, that he had spoken to former Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki about the missing funds and the discovery of the cache, but did not take any action, while expressing anger at the handling of Washington with funds that were transferred by air.
    It is noteworthy that the funds that were transferred to Iraq from a huge facility in New Jersey, a subsidiary of the Federal Reserve Bank in New York, concerning the Development Fund for Iraq, which was established under a decision by the United Nations in May 2003 to retain the proceeds of Iraqi oil. It was scheduled to use the fund in the reconstruction of Iraq. He also called on the UN resolution for the establishment of a regulatory body to ensure spending the Coalition Provisional Authority, led by the United States, which ruled the country during 2003 and the first half of 2004, the funds are suitable to serve the Iraqi people.
    For the Coalition Provisional Authority, the advantage of the exploitation of the fund development rather than the funds allocated by Congress for Iraq, is that the first is not connected by a lot of the rules that govern their spending, and not subject to federal regulations or to the control of Congress, but that was Imola Iraq, none of them regard American taxpayers.
    During the interview, he defended Paul Bremer, who headed the Coalition Provisional Authority, for a method of managing money, and said there had been an urgent need for money to keep the work of the Iraqi ministries. In particular, defended the decision to expedite the transfer of funds in June 2004, before the end of the work of the interim authority and resolve an interim Iraqi government misplaced. During the last two weeks of this month, the Coalition Provisional Authority ordered the transfer of between 4 and 5 billion dollars in cash to Baghdad by air from New York in a rapid series of last-minute trips.
    Bremer explained: «The Iraqi government is bankrupt at that moment. Not government employees have received their salaries for nearly 3 months. So we had to get the money immediately ». He added that there was a process of managing the budget in Baghdad determine the size of the cash required from the Federal Reserve. He said: «The issue is what happened to the money once distributed through the Minister of Finance. I used to have the records are very clear that the money to enter the Iraqi regime ».
    For his part, refused to defend Bowen Bremer, stressing that the control of the Coalition Provisional Authority on the money was very fragile, were not available only a few records on the amount of money expended. He added: «Financial Medkqohna held meetings with a lot of senior adviser to the Coalition Provisional Authority, and taught them to control imposed on the funds of the Development Fund for Iraq were not suitable. We did not invent this, but we learned from officials of the Coalition Provisional authority ».
    Also, questioned former officials at the Ministry of the Treasury in the need for air transport. It is noteworthy that the Treasury Department had already sent 1.7 billion dollars in cash from the accounts of the Iraqi government in the United States to Baghdad during the first weeks after the invasion, and then designed a new Iraqi currency was approved in October (October) of that year. They said: The new currency has ruled on the need to pump more cash from the United States.
    For his part, stressed the guiding Smith, head of the working group of the Ministry of the Treasury on the reconstruction of Iraq after the invasion, that: «did not know that Bremer transported by air each of these funds. I do not see a reason it ».
    Bowen explained that «BRIC Trekker», more investigations conducted by his sensitivity, and began in 2010 when he received Wael Zein, a Lebanese - American works in his office, hiding information that funds stolen in Lebanon. And told him about the guide is the warehouse, which is next to the cash, believed to contain gold, as well as the value of approximately $ 200 million for the Iraqi government.
    However, by that time, Washington had long ago forgotten the money is airborne. Has shown «CIA» interested in pursuing the subject, while she said: «FBI» because it lacks the necessary authority to do so. When he tried to pound an investigation regarding cash missing in Lebanon, met with rejection from the American Embassy in Beirut.
    Bowen was not allowed to travel to Lebanon on an official mission. The embassy refused to give two of his aides had traveled to Lebanon for a visit of the dugout for themselves because it is very dangerous. When aides met Bowen in Beirut with Lebanese Prosecutor General Saeed Mirza, and initially agreed to cooperate with them, and then retracted it later.
    It is worth noting that the Office of Inspector General in Iraq closed in 2013 and currently works in the private sector Bowen. Bowen is believed that at least some of the money was transferred, and added that it was impossible to say for sure whether he was still inside the bunker. He stressed that he still feels frustrated about the lack of cooperation with his government's efforts to trace the missing funds. He said: «I've struggled to get the appropriate support from different agencies during our follow-up to this issue».
