FW: Nestle collects its dues from IraqFrom Baby Milk Action. www.babymilkaction.org October 15, 2004 NESTLE GETS RICHER, IRAQIS GET POORER An article by Naomi Klein http://www.guardian.co.uk/Columnists/Column/0,5673,1328888,00.html outlines a disturbing scenario currently unfolding in Iraq. Not surprisingly perhaps, Nestlé is involved. Britain and America have collected $69.8 million from Iraq, and the vast majority of it has gone to multinational corporations which claim that they lost profits as a result of the Iran-Iraq war. Nestlé is one of the companies that filed a claim, and they have since received $2.6 million. *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
