Former President Clinton appears to have more than just a passing contact with the supporters of global terrorism. In addition to failing to deal with Osama Bin Laden when given the chance, and pardoning the FALN terrorists he also pardoned Marc Rich in his tax evasion case.

It ends up that Mr. Rich is tied to the UN/Iraq oil for food scandal and according to the article -

At the time of his pardon, Mr. Rich was sixth on the Justice Department’s outstanding fugitives list. Prosecutors had refused for 17 years to negotiate a settlement in the case.

In a 2001 report, the House Government Reform Committee, which investigated the last-minute Clinton pardons of Mr. Rich and a business partner, Pincus Green, said the two men had long-standing ties to Saddam, which were well known to U.S. intelligence officials. The report said the two men had done “extensive trade” with Iraq, Iran, Cuba “and other rogue states that have sponsored terrorist acts.”
