  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.
