Description: The General Accounting Office's Joseph A. Christoff was the key witness before a joint House Subcommittees hearing on July 18, 2007. He detailed the widespread corruption impacting the Iraqi Oil Sector. The Chair of the Subcommittee on the Middle East and South Asia, Rep. Gary L. Ackerman (D-NY) engaged Mr. Christoff in a Q & A period. The witness had testified on direct that about "$1.8 billion to $5.5 billion" in oil revenues in Iraq are lost each year due to mostly unchecked "corruption, theft and sabotage." Chairman Ackerman labeled the mess: "World Class Racketeering!" The hearing dealt with the subject matter: "Reconstruction in Iraq's Oil Sector: Running on Empty." For background on the scheme of the Bush-Cheney Gang to privatize most of Iraq's oil, please check out Ms. Antonia Juhasz's Op Ed piece in the NYT, on March 13, 2007, at: http://www.bushagenda.net/article.php?id=369; also, the statement of Rep.
